“This is history. This is what the last president thought about business! The Obama administration had a "boot on business!"

On CNBC Business show Rick Santelli was debating former Obama official and Brookings Institution economist Aaron Klein over taxes, spending and whether the Obama administration enacted “pro-growth” economic reforms. Rick Santelli, the father of the Tea Party movement, was having none of it. At one-point Squawk Boxco-host Joe Kernen said, “Rick, where were you when we had the pro-growth policies in the first two year of the Obama administration? I remember Obamacare. I don’t remember a single pro-growth policy in eight years.”
